I agree that Pentecostals are not worse than other denominations. In fact, in many ways, traditional, Bible centered, Pentecostals offer some of the best of modern Christianity.

That said, I believe Pentecostal leadership, has, in general, not done nearly enough to expose and oppose these gross heretics within the movement, and in many cases has supported them. The same is true of those promoting bizarre “manifestations of the Spirit”, like barking like dogs, clukcing like chickens, gyrating uncontrollably, “holy laughter”, etc.
